Ingredients (Serves 2–3)

• 400g organic diced lamb

• Wooden skewers (soaked in water for 15 minutes to prevent burning)

• Nutty-Sweet Glaze:

  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tbsp tahini (or smooth peanut butter)

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp soy sauce

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger

  • 1 tbsp chopped toasted nuts (almonds, pistachios, or cashews)

  • Optional: ½ tsp smoked paprika for warmth and colour

• Fresh herbs to garnish: parsley, coriander, or mint

• Sea salt & black pepper to taste

Method

1. Prepare the lamb:
   Pat the diced lamb dry with a paper towel. Thread evenly onto the wooden skewers. Season lightly with sea salt and black pepper.

2. Make the glaze:
   In a small bowl, whisk together honey, tahini, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and smoked paprika until smooth. Stir in half of the chopped nuts.

3. Cook the skewers:

   • Oven method: Preheat the oven to 200°C fan (220°C conventional). Place skewers on a lined baking tray and brush generously with the glaze. Roast for 15–20 minutes, turning halfway, until lamb is cooked to your liking.

   • BBQ or grill method: Preheat to medium heat. Cook the skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with glaze, until slightly caramelised and cooked through.

4. Finish and serve:
   Remove skewers from heat and brush with any remaining glaze. Sprinkle the remaining chopped nuts and fresh herbs over the top for a beautiful, crunchy, aromatic finish. Serve with warm flatbreads, couscous, or a simple salad for a full Bonfire Night feast.

Tips for a Delicious Skewer Night

• Customise the nuts: Try different combinations — pistachios, hazelnuts, or walnuts all work beautifully.

• Make it extra sticky: Apply a second coat of glaze in the last 2–3 minutes of cooking for a glossy, nutty finish.

• Family-friendly fun: Let kids sprinkle the nuts or brush the glaze on — a great way to get everyone involved!

These organic lamb skewers are simple to make, full of flavour, and perfect for a Bonfire Night DIY meal. They’re a little sweet, a little nutty, and entirely delicious!
